Just Because ...

... this clip of 5-year-old drummer-boy child prodigy, Justin Harris II, playing drums on Ellen is the cutest thing I've seen in a while  (with Lenny Kravitz being a close second ;)   


 



Lenny surprised his biggest fan on Ellen that day (but later was tossed aside when Ellen presented him with Spiderman gifts lol) 





For those who don't know, Lenny Kravitz (once married to Lisa Bonet) is the son of actress Roxie Roker (The Jeffersons) and TV news producer, Sy Kravitz, and was somewhat of a child prodigy himself.

He taught himself to play virtually any instrument put in front of him - particularly rocking lead guitar and drums (his lead guitar is particularly reminiscent of Jimmy Hendrix). 

Though he has a female drummer in this video, he not only wrote the song, but plays both the guitar rifts and drums on the actual recording of  "Are You Gonna Go My Way" (i.e., what Justin is playing above) ...


 

BONUS!

Justin also likes to play Lenny's "Fly Away" - so this is last year's clip on Ellen, when he was just 4 years old ...








And here's Lenny with the same ...






And just because we love Lenny like we do, here's Lenny doing "American Woman" ...
